He’s always drunk is the joke

He's drunk using his phone. Which might be why the journalist was added to the Signal group chat.

The joke is all of US cares more about leaking messages than sending drones in to kill people without any due process or consequences.

Then they turn around and say Putin needs to be tried for war crimes. But then Putin and all war criminal US presidents laugh their asses off and go about their day like nothing ever happened.

america is so cooked.

The DNC twitter account is probably run by some terminally online 20-something, not exactly leadership caste
